Hi all I have some trouble with guest agent for OpenSUSE 42.3 Leap, short version, it don’t start. I have followed instructions that I could find about this error, but all I could find was for Debian 8 (http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2018-January/086102.html) Still same problem. Anyone who can help me get this right? # cat /etc/os-release NAME="openSUSE Leap" VERSION="42.3" -------- # systemctl status ovirt-guest-agent ● ovirt-guest-agent.service - oVirt Guest Agent Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/ovirt-guest-agent.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Mon 2018-05-07 17:25:40 CEST; 17h ago Process: 1167 ExecStart=/usr/bin/python /usr/share/ovirt-guest-agent/ovirt-guest-agent.py (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Process: 1156 ExecStartPre=/bin/chown ovirtagent:ovirtagent /run/ovirt-guest-agent.pid (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Process: 1141 ExecStartPre=/bin/touch /run/ovirt-guest-agent.pid (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Process: 1132 ExecStartPre=/sbin/modprobe virtio_console (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 1167 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) May 07 17:25:39 seweb03 systemd[1]: Starting oVirt Guest Agent...
